GQ, go with a 245/35 tire up front. And drop it a little more, you'd create more negative camber and it would clear just fine. I have no rubbing anywhere due to the negative camber, and the fact that my rear fender is rolled.

Nexx, I don't have center caps. But you can keep yours. If you're interested, we could meet up somewhere and you could take a look at my wheels.

Just out of curiosity, how much were you asking for the wheels before you decided to just accept trades? I'm in the market and was trying to get a grasp on the value of these used. Thanks in advance for any help.

I had them listed for $1,800 without tires. I'm sure you could find these used with tires for anywhere between $2,200-$2,500.

What size where the old tires? Did they rub?

You have the gunmetal right? How does that compare with the Merc Silver?

I'm thinking of getting TE37's or LE37's, but not sure about the gunmetal or the 30 series rear tires at this point.

I have 19" iForged Aeros if you're interested, but I would def need some cash w/the trade.

At the very least, I wouldn't mind meeting up this week to see the wheels in person. I'm in McKinney......you?

My old tires were 285/30/19. I have the gunmetal finish, which is much darker than the mercury silver. I have to pass on the iforged, but I'm in Jotech area on Saturdays if you want to see my wheels.

Did the 285's rub?

With this wheel size/offset what do you think the perfect size tire is for the rear w/o rolling fenders?

I want these same size wheels/tires, but another color. So I'm just a little iffy about having stretched 275/35's on there. But I want to keep as close as possible to the factory overall diameter.

350Track, the 285 tire didn't rub. As a matter of fact, I was running those tires with a wheel spacer. That's just how much negative camber I have. I don't think you can run a 285 tire without rubbing. The 10.5 +22 offset is just too low to run a wide tire, but you might be able to get away with it if your car isn't dropped.

Sam405, you brought up another option. I appreciate your offer, but I would trade my wheels for Racing Hart J5's or J8's.

Good news, I found a place with the wheels I'm looking for. So I think I just need to seal the deal with the buyer I have for my iForged.

I have only -1.5 negative camber with a 0.75" drop in the rear right now. So I definitely think a 285/35 is out of the question for me...that would be a dream tire size w/o rolling.

I think I'm just gonna do the 245/35 & 275/35 combo.

Thanks for the advice.

350Track, how did you get the 285 tires to work? Did you raise your car back up?
